060112_naturalistsThe Williams Lake Young Naturalists' Club had another fantastic trip this month. We visited the Alex Fraser Research Forest with Cathy Coot. We hiked up to the top of a bluff, exploring along the way.

We saw many neat things, different types of insects and where they live, beautiful flowers, edible plants, evidence of forest fires past, we learned how to age a tree, and, la piece de resistance, we saw a skunk wandering around below.

At the top of the bluff we had an amazing view of the valley. While we were resting and enjoying the view we were treated to a spectacular show by a turkey vulture. There were so many curious minds, and so many neat things to see and hear. Our next trip will be a voyageur canoe trip on Rose Lake at the end of July.
